This is the chilling moment teenage killer Aiden Fucci learned he will spend the rest of his life in prison for the brutal murder of 13-year-old Tristyn Bailey.
The courtroom fell silent as the 16-year-old sat motionless, staring ahead, while the judge handed down the life sentence for the horrific crime that shocked the nation.
Tristyn’s devastated family gave heart-wrenching statements, with her mother declaring: “He is beyond saving.” Her sister even placed 114 tiny aqua hearts into a jar—one for every stab wound the young girl suffered.
Judge R. Lee Smith didn’t hold back, calling Fucci’s crime “cold, calculated, and premeditated,” before sentencing him to life in prison without parole for 25 years.
Fucci—just 14 when he murdered his classmate—showed little emotion as he was told he will die behind bars, while Tristyn’s family finally saw justice served for the horrific attack.
